GENERAL
INFORMATION CONCERNING HANG TABS
These hang
tabs are designed to hang products on peg hooks, display strips — anywhere
customers can see them. Unfortunately, sometimes, a hang tab fails to hold the
product in place. Often the cause of the failure can be easily identified and
corrected. When a hang tab fails, the first thing to examine is the weight and
shape of the product and where, on the product, the hang tab was placed. Each
style of hang tab is designed for packages of various sizes, shapes, and tested
to hang a specific maximum weight. When a hang tab fails, the reason can be as
simple as the wrong hang tab was selected for that particular package — the
package was too heavy for that hang tab, the shape of the hang tab was wrong,
or it was placed incorrectly on the package. These reasons for failure are easy
to identify and correct. If it is determined that the right hang tab was used
for the particular package, there are a number of other factors that can
influence hang tab performance and need to be examined.
APPLYING HANG TABS
:
Hang tabs should be applied on a clean, dry, contaminant-free surface.
Contamination of the adhesive area is one of
most likely reasons for bad hang tab performance and can happen in a number of
different ways. These include: Dust/Dirt, Silicone, Grease/Oil, Moisture,
Cleaners, and Coatings.
PACKAGE SIZE AND WEIGHT
:
Each hang tab has a recommended maximum display weight, when used on an optimal
product/package surface. The size of the product/package can affect the tilt,
or peel angle, when displayed.
SURFACE FORM
:
A hang tab that is placed on a product surface that is uneven will not perform
as well as a hang tab placed on a flat surface. An uneven surface will cause a
reduced percentage of the adhesive to be in contact with the surface.
Generally, the backside of the product/package is the best location for
attaching the hang tab. “Wet-out” is used to describe the time it takes for the
adhesive to completely adhere to the product/package surface. Generally, after
24 hours the adhesive will have gained maximum adhesion strength. Heat and
adding pressure to the adhesive area may reduce the length of the wet-out time.
HANGING ENVIROMENT
:
The optimal temperature performance range for application and display is
between 60°-90° F (15°-32° C). When hang tabs are applied and displayed outside
of this temperature range the adhesive will not have maximum bonding strength.
SUBSTRATES
:
A hang tab is placed directly on the product or the product’s package. If it’s
the product, then the hang tab needs to adhere to whatever material the product
is manufactured — plastic, wood, metal, etc. If the hang tab adheres to the
package, the substrate it adheres to could be plastic, paperboard, or a shrink
film. Hang tabs perform differently on different substrates.
PLASTICS
: Most
soft plastics, including plastics for packaging, contain materials called
“plasticizers.” These provide softness and flexibility to the plastic
but can, over time, migrate to the surface of the material. Plasticizers can
reduce the ability of an adhesive to stick when it is applied or can soften an
already applied adhesive and cause it to lose its ability to support the
package weight.
SHRINK FILM
:
Many products that hang with a hang tab are wrapped in a shrink film. Certain
shrink films work well with hang tabs and others do not. A good shrink film is
one that contains little or no slip agents (waxes or plasticizers). Slip agent
materials are often added to shrink films to help them run smoothly during the
packaging process. Slip agents make it more difficult for the adhesive on hang
tabs to bond to the shrink wrap. Often, “print grade” shrink film works well
with these hang tabs.
PAPERBOARD / BOXES
:
Coatings, such as ultraviolet (UV) cured varnishes are commonly used on
paperboard packages and can affect hang tab adhesion. Surface coatings such as
paint or ink may not be adhesive friendly or may be loosely bonded to the
products so that they, not the adhesive on the hang tab, break away from the
surface.
HANG TAB PEEL / DEFLECTION / DISTORTION
: Deflection or distortion are key first indicators of an
over-stressed hang tab. Deflection or distortion cause greater peel stress on
the adhesive and will lead to premature failure. The best way to test for peel,
deflection and distortion is to apply the appropriate weight to hang tabs,
place them on a peg hook and observe.
